Resumen del Editor
A moving novel about the fates of two women and those they love in the days surrounding the founding of the State of Israel.
Jerusalem, 1947: Judith, a young Jewish woman who survived Dachau concentration camp, arrives in Palestine after a treacherous journey and seeks refuge with her only remaining relative, her uncle. When Judith learns her uncle has died, she tries to take her own life in despair.
In Hadassah Hospital, Hana, an Arab nurse, saves Judith’s life by donating her own blood. A fragile bond of friendship develops between the two women, but it will face a harsh test over time.
Soon Hana’s fiancé Youssef learns that she, the daughter of a prominent Palestinian family, is in love with a Jewish doctor, and he becomes increasingly radicalized. Youssef joins the followers of a mufti who plans to drive the Jews into the sea. Judith, meanwhile, follows the Jewish Palmach officer Uri into the battle for Jerusalem.
Then the political situation worsens. In November, the United Nations adopts the Partition Plan for Palestine - and the violence erupts.
Author Werner Sonne worked for more than forty years as a television correspondent for ARD in Germany and abroad. He’s a sought-after expert in the fields of foreign and security policy. His intention for this novel was to show the human face of the Jerusalem conflict.

Historia
Dr. Laura Pavlov, an American forensic archaeologist, is about to unravel a mystery that promises to solve one of the twentieth century’s greatest enigmas. Dr. Pavlov is a member of an international team digging on the outskirts of the present-day Russian city of Ekaterinburg, where the Romanov royal family was executed by their captors in July 1918. When Pavlov discovers two bodies perfectly preserved in permafrost in a disused mine shaft, they offer dramatic new clues to the disappearance of the Romanovs and, in particular, their famous daughter, Princess Anastasia, whose murder has always been shrouded in doubt.

It's not just a thousand miles that separates Hanna Majewski from her younger sister, Stefa. There is another gulf—between the traditional Jewish ways that Hanna chose to leave behind in Warsaw, and her new, independent life in London. But as autumn of 1940 draws near, Germany begins a savage aerial bombing campaign in England, killing and displacing tens of thousands. Hanna, who narrowly escapes death, is recruited as a spy in an undercover operation that sends her back to her war-torn homeland.

“In wartime,” Winston Churchill wrote, “truth is so precious that she should always be attended by a bodyguard of lies.” For Britain’s counterintelligence operations, this meant finding the unlikeliest agent imaginable - a history professor named Alfred Vicary, handpicked by Churchill himself to expose a highly dangerous, but unknown, traitor. The Nazis, however, have also chosen an unlikely agent.

The narrator’s voice made it VERY difficult to love this book.
I absolutely applaud narrators esp when there are multiple characters voices. However the whimsical portrayal of the lead female characters irked my nerves. The historical aspects of the book are great yet the narration attempted to turn it into a sleazy romance novel. The love stories could be betrayed without a bad soap opera interpretation.

Fascinating story
I really appreciated the story and the multitude of perspectives in this novel. However, because the perspectives from various characters changed abruptly, it was challenging at times to track with the narrative as I listened to the audible book. I would be curious if reading the book would be easier.

Historical Fiction Relevant to Current Events
This heart wrenching historical fiction tells the story of the creation of the modern Jewish state in 1948. It is seen through the eyes of a young Jewish woman who was liberated from a Nazi concentration camp at the end of WWII and fled to Palestine.
The book is well researched. It held my interest in a way that a documentary history might not. It gave me a deeper understanding of the Arab / Isreali conflict that erupted in 1948 and continue unabated today.
One thread in the story is the bond between an Arab nurse and the Jewish heroine. It showed how friendship and peace are possible when people are willing set aside their religious and cultural differences and be "humans first".

Mispronounciaton of names was annoying
The narrator should have studied the pronunciation od names, places, and Hebrew words before narrating the story. The many mispronounciatons (including one of the central characters' name) was very distracting

Reviewed in the United States on April 26, 2022
A well written story filled with love, loss, friendship, beliefs, family and war. We meet two women that could not be more different and yet the same. Join in on the fragile bond between two women during the time of war.
I have always loved Coleen Marlo. She makes it all work and work well.
